maybe you can post me your kernel config? i started a thread @ http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-757019.html because of this issue and one regarding networking.

Yah, its got four cores. There’s something you have to turn on in the kernel under CPU settings (the name escapes me at the moment). Might be hyperthreading, might be named something else. At the very least, you need SMP support.

Dunno, just using it to playback video, haven’t done any recording at all.

Performance seems okay. I’d still rather have a VIA. This thing overheats all the time, and there’s no cpufreq driver for it in the kernel.

is it ok to record of DVB-s and encode as well?
